STORIES OF MĀORI BATTALION MUST BE RETOLD – ARDERNPrime Minister Jacinda Ardern says stories about the Māori Battalion and other Māori soldiers who served throughout history need to be retold “because all of those stories are so rich and part of who we are and we need to hear them”. The 28th Māori Battalion served during WWII between 1940 and 1945. Almost 3,600 men served and 649 were killed in action or died on active service. Ardern says, “We’re doing everything that we can to make sure that, particularly, the contribution of Māori Battalion and those contributions, that history, continues to be retold.”..... www.maoritelevision.com/news/regional/stories-maori-battalion-must-be-retold-ardern
